The visit of an outsider caused the ruins, which had been silent for many years, to burst with ear-piercing noises.
The large room was filled with bronze mechanical life forms. The dislocated gears collided frequently, and the resulting sound was abnormally torturous to the ears.
There were also many bronze mechanical life forms in the passageways outside the six entrances of the room.
They were all attracted by Ge Er, and their movements were frighteningly uniform.
At this moment, there was no sign of Ge Er's existence in the room at all.
In such a terrifying situation, even if one did not die from rust, they would be crushed to death or suffocated to death.
On the other side, in a passageway not far from Ge Er's room, a slightly burly man with short hair leaned against the wall. His chest rose and fell violently, and his face was full of fear.
This person was Ci Zhu, one of the Food Hunters in the Hunters' Association team this time. The other was Men Qi.
Just like Ge Er, he had accidentally separated from the main group when the Hunters' Association team suddenly encountered the wave of bronze mechanical life forms.
After that, he had also tried to find a way to meet up with the main group. His method was similar to Ge Er's, which was to follow the nearest safe spot, hoping to meet the main group there.
However, just now, countless bronze mechanical life forms ran out from the depths of the ruins as if they had been injected with chicken blood, occupying the route he wanted to take.
He was so scared that he quickly hid, restrained his aura, and waited for the bronze mechanical life forms to head to the nearest safe spot.
Ci Zhu waited until the movement stopped for a moment before he dared to make a move. He decisively turned back and stayed away from any passageway that led to the nearest safe spot.
"Who could be so unlucky …"
After a short rest, Ci Zhu's face was gloomy, but the throbbing in his heart could not be calmed down.
Even though the roots and plants here could provide him with sufficient food and water, the bronze mechanical life forms that could be seen everywhere were like the Grim Reaper that had suddenly appeared. The degree of danger was terrifyingly high.
The phenomenon of a large number of bronze mechanical life forms crowding around just now was obvious that someone was being held back.
If it was the main group of the association, there was still a possibility of dealing with and retreating.
If it was a lone person like him, he would basically be surrounded like a dumpling with nowhere to run.
"May the sun bless you …"
Ci Zhu didn't know who had lured this group of terrifying fellows. He could only pray in his heart and then retreat in the opposite direction.
Regardless of whether it was a large group that had attracted so many bronze mechanical life forms or some unlucky person who had accidentally left the group, it wasn't impossible for Tzi Pig to approach that area.
One could imagine that when the commotion completely subsided, the density of copper mechanical life forms in that area would definitely be terrifyingly high.
Wild Pig was walking quickly in a passageway. The eyes in his eye sockets were constantly wandering, constantly observing the movements in his surroundings.
The light that shone through the cracks in the ceiling was mottled. Every so often, there would be a small patch of light.
These light sources were like the indicator lights of an escape route. No matter which direction, which passage, or even which room they were in, they would always be able to see a light source or a ball of light ahead.
As they passed by these light sources, they would occasionally see the light sources suddenly disappear, as if someone had suddenly blocked the sunlight. Not long after, the light would be cast on the ground again.
Wild Pig knew very well what the thing that had temporarily blocked the light source was. It was also this phenomenon that kept reminding him that there were more bronze mechanical life forms on the ground!
If not, he could keep searching in the basement one level and find a safe way out.
If not, he could continue to go to the basement two level. Under the premise of having sufficient food sources, he could at least live a little longer.
"Are there any clues … Are there any clues …!"
Wild Pig held a small file that was used to carve ingredients. As he muttered softly, he gently drew an arrow mark on the conspicuous wall.
When he was leaving the mark, he was also delusional in thinking that he could find any clues that the Hunters' Association might have left behind.
In order to meet up with the main group, his destination was still the next safe point.
After leaving a new mark, Wild Pig quickly walked forward, walked to the end of the passageway, and turned right.
After walking for about two hundred meters, he raised the small file again and pressed the tip of the file against the wall that wasn't occupied by plants.
"Eh?"
Just as he was about to exert force with his arm to let the small file leave the first mark, for some reason, his arm didn't move according to his thoughts.
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. His gaze shifted from the small file to his arm. Suddenly, as if he had seen something terrifying, his pupils shrank sharply.
A thin line that he didn't know when, from below diagonally went up and passed through his right elbow.
Wild Pig only felt a chill run up his spine and straight to the top of his head.
In his vision, a ray of light that looked like a small water droplet that climbed on a line slid down from above, then passed through his arm and swam to the other end of the unknown.
His frightened gaze followed the flowing light on the line and fell on a stacked Rubik's cube on the ground that was half embedded in the ground.
The other end of the thin line was connected to the half-diamond-shaped Rubik's cube.
Wild Pig suddenly moved. His empty left hand quickly took over the small file in his right hand. He gathered his psychic power on the tip of the file and immediately slashed at the thin line that passed through his right elbow.
However, just as the small file was about to cut the thin line, the left arm that swung the file suddenly stopped moving in the air as if it was immobilized.
Wild Pig's expression froze. He only saw that his left arm was also pierced by a thin line.
The thin line was also launched from the diamond-shaped Rubik's cube embedded in the ground. The timing was chosen when Wild Pig's attention was focused on the thin line that penetrated his right elbow.
In addition, the thin line didn't cause any pain when it passed through his arm, so Wild Pig didn't realize that he had been hit again until his arm stopped listening to him.
Silently, the stacked cubes of the Rubik's cube moved slightly. The gaps between each other opened up a little. At the same time, a glimmer of light seeped out from inside. Four thin lines shot out and silently passed through Wild Pig's chest, throat, and legs.
Suddenly, Wild Pig froze in place. A lot of sweat oozed from his forehead.
His face became bloodless because of fear. When the thin line passed through his body, he was sensitive to the changes and was suddenly filled with despair.
Then, he saw the half-embedded Rubik's cube that he had never seen before drilled out from the ground. As the stacked cubes opened up, the light emitted from the body became brighter.
At this moment, hundreds of thin lines suddenly sprang out and pierced Wild Pig into a thorny hedgehog.
Wild Pig didn't make a sound. His entire body, including his clothes and ironware, instantly rusted into a pile of powder and fell to the ground.
After killing Wild Pig, the diamond-shaped Rubik's cube retracted the thin line. The stacked cubes that looked like a blooming flower slowly returned to their original position. They covered the light in the body and turned into a relatively pure diamond-shaped copper body.
After that, it returned to the hole that it had just drilled out of. After a little adjustment, it was completely embedded with the ground.
However, if one looked up from the ground, they would find that the hole was perpendicular and connected to the first and second basement levels.
At the same time, in another place.
